This is soooo true Sr. Dirctors have Alot of input. Tonya Picou- Glover (TPG) did from the former BFO (not sure of the rebrand). A narcissist will NEVER confess. LOOK OUT FOR THIS ONE.

Poorly documented operational, an in-house developed security reporting dashboard, no up to dare operational run-books across every group. Cyber Security initiatives from 2025 that barely achieved.
once the new CEO re-aligns the CISO who actually communicates to all and understands the type of talent at their disposal versus listening to

100% agree. I feel like those who were left in my area were all of my managers favorites. Even people who knew less and have been in the company less than me. It su-ks but sadly it's VZ reality.
